Utility Mark-outs:
Many of residents have been asking about the utility mark-outs (paint in the roadway) happening in their neighborhood. The State is mandating that ALL galvanized and lead drinking water (potable water) lines must be changed out. To accomplish this task, New Jersey American Water sent surveys and numerous mailings to every water customer. When customers do not respond, New Jersey American Water MUST verify the type of pipe supplying water to your house.
New Jersey American Water Company, and/or their vendor, will be field verifying the material of the domestic water supply pipes in our area. This means the contractor will be digging a small “Test Pit” in the grassy area between the sidewalk and curb to verify the material of your water pipe.
Not every property will have a “Test Pit”, only the properties that have not had their water service verified will be affected. If it is found that a house has a lead or galvanized water supply pipe, New Jersey American Water and/or their contractor will be contacting the affected properties so the water supply lines can be changed out.
Approximately 200 properties will have Test Pits performed.
Leaf Season Collection Notice:
Leaf Vacuum operations have ceased for 2025. Please bag all of your leaves in clear bags for pick up on Fridays and Mondays.
Yard Waste Notice:
The City can not pick up yard waste in anything other than clear bags. Please do not use black or green contractor’s bags nor the brown paper leaf bags for your yard waste.
Do not mix sticks, vines, nor trash in with your grass clippings and leaves. These items should be placed in your regular trash collection with the exception of branches and tree limbs.
Chipping of brush will be moving to Tuesdays, beginning in March, weather permitting. Please do not park in front of brush left curbside for chipping. Public Works will not drag tree limbs around vehicles.
Please make sure all brush is facing the same direction. Brush piles that are tangled, mixed with vines or other debris, will not be chipped. This is for the safety of our personnel and the efficiency of operation.
Brush to be chipped should be no less than four (4) feet in length and no more than six (6) inches in diameter. We cannot take stumps or bamboo. If you or someone you hire cut down any trees, you are required to make arrangements for the removal of the material. The City will no longer chip brush left from tree removal and/or lot clearing.
Brush chipping operations are only for general property maintenance and storm debris. Piles of brush should be neatly stacked, and single piles shall not exceed 3 feet in height, and 12 feet in length per week. At no time, shall brush block sidewalks or travel lanes of roadways.
Grass and leaves, in clear bags, are picked up on Mondays & Fridays and chipping operations are on Tuesdays from the first week of March through mid October; weather permitting.
